You Said

You said 'Yes I do' You vowed your honour to me You said 'I'll always love you' To me that's your reason for being You said 'for better or worse' Now you try to walk out on me? You said 'forever I will' Now you want to go a new way? Vows may mean nothing to you? But to me I'll take them to my grave I always told you that I'd die for you How do you think it could end any other way? I never thought that you'd cheat on me Then bring him here to get your own way! You're tied to the chair where you sit Your arms are free but there is where you'll stay I've made a dinner for you You'll eat now and I'll bring more for you each day The blind fold will be taken off soon When you finished your meal one day The man that you wanted to fool Has fooled you and your boyfriend his way Did you enjoy your meat? The vegetables I seasoned my way You wanted to consume me with grief? You've consumed him in a different way.
